Chapter 1 It is said that you are not fair
Linchuan, the most pleasant city in the south of the Yangtze River, has always been known as the spring city, every time in the season, the flowers outside the city are splendid, and the breeze is fragrant.
Linchuan is also the most prosperous city in the south of the Yangtze River, because of the convenient transportation of the Yangtze River, so the merchants from the south to the north like to exchange goods here, transit and rest, and in the long run, it has formed a prosperous commercial center.
Many generations of businessmen have taken advantage of this unique convenience to accumulate abundant family assets from generation to generation.
It's just that no matter how prosperous and lively the place is, there are also poor corners, even if it is the famous commercial capital of the Great Zhou, it is the same.
Linchuan North City is a large civilian area. The criss-crossing paths connect countless houses, and they are inhabited by poor families. Those who carry work on the docks, sell vegetables in the market, carry burdens and set up stalls, and of course, there are some idle gangsters who are unwilling to do things.
Just after lunchtime, most of the people in Beicheng District were busy doing things outside, but the city was very quiet, only some elderly people and children.
In the alley, a figure hurried through. Although it is a gray cloth dress, it is not difficult to see that it is a slender figure. It's just that for some reason, her face is still covered with a veil, so that people can't see her appearance.
On the side of the alley, a wooden door creaked open, revealing a wrinkled face, and when the probe looked out, a smile appeared on his face when he saw the woman, and he beckoned: "Doctor Lin, Doctor Lin, come quickly." ”
The figure quickened a few steps, followed the old lady into the courtyard, closed the door, and then took off the veil.
Under the veil, there is a delicate face, but at the age of sixteen or seventeen, the skin is fair, the Danfeng eyes have long eyelashes, and there is a shallow pear vortex on the side of the cheek, which is sweet and lovely.
"Granny Li." Chu Lingfeng exhaled and fanned the wind with his veil: "You are in such a hurry to find me, what happened?" ”
Although Granny Li is not young, she looks very strong, and she doesn't look like she has a sudden illness at all. Calling Chu Lingfeng couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Doctor Chu, I have something I want to ask you for help." Granny Li squinted her eyes and held Chu Lingfeng's hand: "Mother-in-law knows that you are the kindest girl, and if you think about it, I can only beg you." ”
"Mother-in-law, don't be so polite, what the hell is going on, if I can help, I will definitely help." Chu Lingfeng smiled and didn't explain much. In fact, she is not so kind, of course, it is the duty of a doctor to treat diseases and save people, but there is another reason for taking care of this place over the years.
"That's right." Granny Li led Chu Lingfeng to the room, and said: "A while ago, my son caused a little trouble when he was doing things outside, thanks to the help of a kind Xue Gongzi, who is the eldest son of the Xue family in the city, and Xue Gongzi saw the pity of our orphans and widows, and found him an errand, he is a very good son." ”
Chu Lingfeng looked dazed: "So what? ”
I understood it, but I didn't understand what Granny Li meant by saying this to herself, so she couldn't have wanted to introduce her.
Linchuan Xue family, the richest man in Jiangnan, Xue Mingyang, the eldest son of Xue, is the eldest son of the Xue family. Even if Chu Lingfeng didn't deliberately inquire, he had heard of the big name. Although there are some surprises that such a son-in-law will be approachable and associate with such a poor person, no matter how approachable he is, he is not able to climb high.
Granny Li pulled Chu Lingfeng into the house and said, "But God is unfair, such a good son, handsome and capable, but unfortunately, he is sick." ”
Chu Lingfeng poured himself a glass of water and drank: "What disease?" ”
It's not a problem to help heal. It's just that what is Xue Mingyang's identity, if he wants to treat a disease, what doctor can't find it, as for coming to her?
Hearing Chu Lingfeng's question, Granny Li looked around, leaned over as if she had said something unseeable secret, and whispered, "He can't do it." ”
"Poof......" Chu Lingfeng squirted out a mouthful of water, and wiped the corners of his mouth busily: "; What are you talking about, Granny Li, what can't Xue Gongzi? ”
"Hey, that's it, that's not good......" Granny Li's face was regretful and you know how to look, she took Chu Lingfeng's hand and said with deep affection: "You said that Xue Gongzi is a young man, this is a terrible thing." And I can't say it, I guess that the young man is thin-skinned and embarrassed to look at it. So I want to ask Dr. Lin to take a look. ”
After all, Chu Lingfeng is famous in this area, kind-hearted and skilled in medicine, whether it is a minor illness or a small pain, or an incurable disease, he can heal your injuries and relieve pain, although it is a girl's family, but the heart of the doctor's parents, as long as he has the ability, there is no need to avoid too many men and women.
"But......" Chu Lingfeng hesitated a little: "I don't know this Xue Gongzi, and Granny Li also said that he is thin-skinned, can you pull down his face for me to diagnose?" What's more, there are many cases of this hidden disease of men, and it is not something that can be explained clearly in one or two sentences. ”
"I know, I know." Granny Li smiled, looking like she understood everything: "I told Xue Gongzi that he helped me a lot last time, and the old woman always wanted to thank him, made some pastries, and invited him to sit down." At that time, I will say that you are a distant niece of mine who is a relative, and the family runs a medical center, so can't you diagnose Xue Gongzi with a safe pulse or something? ”
The more Granny Li thought about it, the more she felt seamless, and her eyes were full of expectation when she looked at Chu Lingfeng.
Chu Lingfeng smiled helplessly, although this medical treatment is inseparable from seeing and hearing, but not all diseases can be seen by diagnosing the pulse. What's more, it's a relatively complicated problem.
Just before Chu Lingfeng could say anything, there was already a knock on the door outside the courtyard, and the door was not closed, and then someone strode in, and a warm voice said, "Granny Li." ”
"It's coming, it's coming." Granny Li responded repeatedly, shook Chu Lingfeng's hand, and said in a low voice, "It's troublesome." ”
Chu Lingfeng instinctively wanted to refuse, but the man moved quickly, and he seemed to be familiar, and he had already arrived at the door as he spoke, so he had to quickly turn his back and put the veil on.
Girls are no better than men, especially women in the boudoir, and they pay more attention to the door and do not step out. It's just that the poor people have to show up in order to survive, and they don't pay so much attention to it. But those who have a little family background are still pampered with their daughters.
Although Chu Lingfeng is not a wealthy family, he is also a wealthy family, so when he comes out to see a doctor for others, he has always been veiled, and he does not dare to reveal his real name and identity. In case someone knows the identity and spreads any rumors to the home, it will inevitably be troublesome for a while.
As soon as the veil was put on, a burst of light poured in, and the door opened, and a young man no more than twenty years old entered. Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, long figure, although the clothes are low-key but hidden luxury, and this dilapidated house is incompatible, it seems that it is Xue Mingyang that Granny Li said.
Granny Li looked at the man who pushed the door in, and the joy between her eyebrows was even stronger. At this age, what people are most willing to see is outstanding juniors. looks good and has a good identity, although his son is not so good, it is also gratifying to have such an excellent person to help.
"Xue Gongzi, it's a coincidence that you came." Granny Li looked very surprised: "Come on, my niece is checking my pulse, since you are here, can you take a look by the way?"
"Ah, what are you looking at?" Xue Mingyang, who had just entered the house, looked dazed, and before he could figure out the situation, he was pulled by Granny Li to sit on a chair, and his wrist was pressed on the table.
"Look at how your body is, let me tell you, my niece's medical skills are good, just happened to meet, you are lucky." Granny Li gave Chu Lingfeng a look: "Come, Ah Lin, this Xue Gongzi is my benefactor, you have to use snacks." ”
Tightly veiled and only revealing a pair of eyes, Chu Lingfeng pulled the corners of his mouth under the veil, although he felt that this matter was a bit unreliable, but he couldn't stand Granny Li's enthusiasm, so he had to cough and lower his voice: "Xue Gong......"
As soon as he spit out a word, before he could speak again, there were hurried footsteps outside the door, and it seemed that someone rushed in.
Granny Li was afraid that someone would be embarrassed by Xue Mingyang, so she went to the door on the pretext of serving snacks, and when she heard the voice and looked up, she saw a girl rushing in.
"Sweetie." Granny Li was stunned: "Why did you come?" ”
This is the maid that Chu Lingfeng carries with him, and she always follows her back and forth on weekdays. I didn't follow today, and Granny Li was still strange at first, so when I saw it, I didn't feel anything.
"Where's our young lady?" The little maid who rushed in hurriedly grabbed Granny Li's hand: "Something happened at home, I'm in a hurry to find Miss." ”
"It's in there." Granny Li pointed to the door: "But now ......."
But before the two words were finished, the little girl rushed into the door, and the frightened Chu Lingfeng just grabbed Xue Mingyang's wrist and shook his fingers, and then was pounced.
"What's the matter......" Chu Lingfeng stretched out his hand to support the little girl, and before he could ask a word, he was pulled up by the little girl and went out, the little girl was already nervous and even her voice changed, and she didn't pay any attention to the other person in the house, let alone look at him, so she pulled her young lady out of the house with infinite strength.
"What's going on?" Granny Li asked in a loud voice behind her, caught up with a few steps forward, only to see the figures of the two disappearing at the turn of the alley.
Chu Lingfeng was also very strange, and was pulled out of the two alleys by Xiao Tian, and then he reluctantly stopped: "What the hell is going on, please, why is it in such a hurry." ”
Xiao Tian stopped and didn't have time to wipe the sweat on her face: "Miss, it's terrible, I just heard the news from earlier, and the master has set a family affair for you." ”
"Family?" Chu Lingfeng pulled the veil down, a little strange: "Why did you suddenly set a family affair for me, which one is it?" ”
"The Xue family is the Xue family that is the richest man in Linchuan." When Xiao Tian said the word richest man, she didn't look happy at all, but couldn't hide her anxiety: "I don't know why, the Xue family suddenly found a matchmaker to bring a dowry to propose marriage for the eldest young master, and designated Miss You, even the days are calculated, on the eighteenth of this month, it is said to be auspicious." ”
"The Xue family...... Gentleman? Chu Lingfeng's mind went blank for a moment, and then flashed the face of the man he saw just now: "You mean, Xue Mingyang?" ”
"I guess that's what it's called." Xiao Tian said impatiently: "The point is not what his name is, Miss, haven't you heard that the eldest young master of the Xue family is suffering from a hidden disease, he can't do it, if you marry him, won't you have to stay a widow for the rest of your life?" ”
